The claim departs from the passage: the post says only "In July" and gives no year, so the added "July 2024" is not in the post.
The host relays this claim without endorsing it. It counts as passed on, not against the post.
What was said
… Now, as the, ah, reporter Brendan Hartnett notes, Scott Pressler has been one of the loudest voices elevating the claim that Democrats are illegally registering voters. In July, Pressler accused a Pennsylvania shelter for the homeless of allowing more than 500 people to use the address to vote, saying the shelter only holds a hundred beds. The Pennsylvania Department of State has a lot of explaining to do. We're finding this all over the state. Preserve your records. …
Philip Teresi · · from the transcriptPost →What we found
Supports. PennLive reports that Presler boasted in July of finding a Pennsylvania homeless shelter with 500 registered voters and only 100 beds.[1]
Supports. The Bulwark quotes Presler's attack on a Pennsylvania homeless shelter for allegedly having 500 people registered to vote there despite its 100-bed capacity.[2]
Context. Sources note that homeless people may lawfully use a shelter's address to register to vote, which undercuts the accusation's implication of wrongdoing.[1]
Context. No source in the set dates Presler's shelter accusation to July 2024; the sources published in October 2026 place it in the July before that reporting.[1][2][3]
